ft. Sonica Aron, Managing Partner, Marching Sheep
December 07, 2021 00:35 - 1 hour - 71.4 MBThe future is inclusive. And to build that, we need the present to consider it. How many of us have a person from the queer community as colleagues? Maybe the media sector has more people as it is comparatively quite inclusive but then again policies rarely include them. Introducing a third check box in the gender section is not enough, and just having a PR exercise or rainbow-ing the logos in Pride month is just show-off. To talk about all this and more, we had Sonica Aron, Managing Partn...

July 13, 2021 00:35 - 1 hour - 61 MBWe often talk about representation and pop culture. One major contribution that works behind the scenes here is that of the casting department.

June 29, 2021 00:35 - 1 hour - 65.7 MBOne of the main reasons why we get through most things in life is our little circle of friends and well-wishers, and therapists.

Ep.80: ft. Raqeeb Raza, Artist
June 22, 2021 00:35 - 1 hour - 63 MBIt is said that art comforts the disturbed and disturbs the comfortable.

Butch female characters for lesbians, effeminate male characters for gays- how inaccurate is that!

May 25, 2021 00:35 - 59 minutes - 54.4 MBThe dictionary meaning of Homophobia is the dislike of or prejudice against gay people. But here, the buck doesn't stop there.

April 20, 2021 00:35 - 33 minutes - 31 MBThese days, we are out of answers for 'How are you?' or 'How's it going? Making new connections IRL or on social media is backed by a major factor of loneliness. While it is good that people are there for each other, but don't we often run out of topics to talk about that go beyond discussing 'the new normal' or the apathy of the government or sharing pet pictures. Why does this happen? When it comes to making new connections, does a feeling of uncertainty creep up- will we meet, is there a ...
